Your cart is empty.When it comes to sound recording for videos, the choice of microphone is often underestimated. The quality of the camera-integrated microphones often leaves much to be desired and does not match the high video resolution. They capture sound evenly from all directions and record audio in clear quality only when the sound source is close to the camera. This leads to a faded sound with a lack of speech intelligibility even with normal camera distances. To improve speech intelligibility, a directional microphone can help. It captures the sound respectively tuned to the focus of the camera and suppresses background noise. However, a normal directional microphone is mono, which restricts the sound pattern. A stereo microphone can add spatial depth to the sound image. However, most common XY stereo microphones pick up ambient noise from all directions - with often unwanted background noise from the side or back of the camera. The MKE 440 picks up the sound to the video image and effectively attenuates background noise that lies away from the shooting axis and camera focus. It combines the advantages of both microphone concepts and delivers stereo sound without unwanted side effects.

オンライン講師としてSM7Bを使ってます。口元にマイクを置けないようなシーンの収録用に購入。音関係の素人としてはSM7Bのおかげで耳が肥えてる方だと思いますが、しっかりいい音で撮れます。YouTuberがあげてる音質テスト的な動画を一切信用していない（使ってみたら動画のような音にはらない。何度痛い目を見たことか・・）のですが、これは信用して大丈夫。本当にちゃんと、いい音でした。カメラと連動して電源オンになるのも本当にありがたい。情報があふれすぎて、本当に良いものかどうかが、どんどんわからなくなっていってる気がするから、こういう良いものがちゃんと評価されるよう、購入者として、レビューのためではなく実際に使ったものとして、ちゃんとレビューしていきたいって思いました。

It’s totally practical to use this stereo mic to record environment sounds and interviews (in the range less than 2-3 metres). Solid build and relatively light comparing to other stereo mics.

Shotgun mikrofon düşünenler Rode'ye hiç bulaşmasın derim. Sennheiser'in bu modeli bir 416 kadar olmasa da gayet iyi. Zira 416 modeli çok pahalı, 416 alamıyorsam MKE 600 modelini fiyatı ve performansı ile tercih ederim. Kapalı alanda kullanacaksanız süngeri takmanızı tavsiye etmem çünkü sesinizin rengini değiştiriyor. Kutudan, kameraya bağlamak için XLR-3,5mm kısa bir kablo çıkıyor ancak ses kartına bağlamak için XLR dişi erkek çıkmıyor, extra alacağınız kablo da balance'lı kaliteli olmalı, yoksa dip ses yapar. Ses kartınız da kaliteli olmalı. Dublaj, seslendirme, yayın profesyonel işler için uygun. Ben uzaktan değil yakından kullanmak için aldım, 1 karış mesafeden kullanacaksanız pop filter gerekli. 2-3 karış mesafeden de ses kalitesi gayet iyi. Ancak öyle 2-3 metreden hiçbir shotgun'da yakındaki gibi tok bir performans beklemeyin.

It's really great. I used it to record a piano recital.There was no background noise or distortion; only pure music with a great sound.It is made in Germany.The microphone is great for capturing the ambience of an event.The integrated windscreen is made of stainless steel micro mesh.It is powered by two AAA batteries (included).I like the illuminated power switch because it shows the battery status.I like to use the cold shoe camera mount to attach the MKE440.This lets me get great sound with minimal effort.

Das Sennheiser MKE 440 – professionelles Stereo-Richtmikrofon wurde für Videoaufnahmen auf meiner Canon EOS 5D Mark IV gekauft. Gleich beim ersten Test, Videoaufnahme meiner Tochter mit Gitarre und Gesang, konnte mich der reine und klare Klang komplett überzeugen. Auch beim Abspielen über meine Stereoanlage überzeugte mich das Mikrophon total. Es gab keine Nebengeräusche oder Verzerrungen; nur Musik pur mit einem tollen Klang. Bei den von mir verwendeten Objektiv wurden keine Geräusche vom verändern der Scharfstellung der Optik aufgenommen. (Canon Zoomobjektiv EF 24-70mm F2.8L II USM für EOS) Wie sich das Mikrofon bei anderen Optiken verhält kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Laut Beschreibung von Sennheiser werden solche Geräusche unterdrückt.Für Aufnahmen im Freien wurde von mir der original Windschutz Sennheiser MZH 440 angeschafft.
